We will slowly work our way up to layering elementary movements over one another whilst stationary and traveling using visualization. A cardio/movement based warm up is included with strengthening included to help you find the muscles required to execute the sequences safely.

3. CREATIVE FINGER CYMBALS
For dancers wishing to enhance their finger cymbal skills. We will use theater games to encourage rhythm within the whole body and tribal style movement drills to help us dance with more confidence whilst we become proficient in playing various patterns .The short compositions will be drilled and students encouraged to create their own movement interpretations utilizing the cymbal compositions. Students must bring a pair of Finger Cymbals to class.
